TAs Stage 1 Street Eliminator (SE) series heads are the
easiest way to upgrade to aluminum heads, and get the
performance you want. Intake and exhaust flow are improved to
out perform ported iron heads. These heads can be further ported
for an even greater power gain, which is not obtainable with any
iron cylinder head. These heads are perfectly suited as
replacements for original iron heads that are cracked or in poor
condition. Because these heads incorporate all of the same
exterior features as stock iron heads there are NO additional parts
needed when upgrading to TAs Stage 1 Street Eliminator Cylinder
Heads! TAs Stage 1 Series heads also incorporate the original
type air conditioning mounting boss above the #2 exhaust port.
On 10:1 Compression engines, out of the box performance is
usually 50+ HP. These heads can support pump gas
combinations up to 600 HP and race combinations up to 700 HP.
Stage 1 SE Primary Use:
- When a direct replacement for iron heads is necessary
- When a performance head is desired and you have upgrade
parts from your iron heads that you want to re-use such as
headers, intake and/or valve train parts.
- When a performance head is desired along with some degree of
stealth
- When using a GS Air cleaner and dual plane intake combination
- When hood clearance is a concern and where the widest
selection of intakes is a benefit
